A worldwide child-pornography investigation by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement resulted in the arrest of over 200 adults, the agency announced on Thursday. So far 123 child victims have been identified in relation to this investigation, 110 of whom are from the U.S., with the rest scattered across six other countries. ICE Director John Morton said the investigation is part of an effort to crack down on both child abuse and pornography by rescuing victims and arresting perpetrators.
